best doctor5
Without doubt, Jon Pertwee is the best Doctor Who.
Great price @ £34.99 and classic stories. You won't be disappointed.
Buy Buy Buy! and then buy The Silurians boxset aswell.

A Doctor Who Must Buy5
The Jon Pertwee Collection includes six different Doctor Who stories featuring the third doctor, (Spearhead From Space, Inferno, The Claws of Axos, The Three Doctors, Carnival of Monsters, and The Green Death.) Jon Pertwee was arguably the best doctor (personally I'm split between him and Tom Baker as some as his stories, like Genesis Of The Daleks were just amazing.) But with Jon Pertwee you always could look forward to a great story and he delivered every time. Included is the first Doctor Who story to be broadcast entirely in colour (Spearhead From Space,) and also the 10th anniversary (The Three Doctors.) I think Spearhead From Space was the first Doctor Who story to be released onto DVD, and it's not hard to see why, as it is one of the greatest and one of my personal favourite of all time. There are some fantastic special features in the boxed set, especially on The Three Doctors, and Inferno. The boxed set is good value and you're getting six of the greatest Doctor Who stories of all time. The only thing I can fault is that it doesn't include any of his Dalek encounters, which are yet to be released. A must buy for any Doctor Who fan and I recommend that you get it why you can.

Excellent Stories-Excellent Doctor-Excellent Value5
6 great third Doctor stories, including the colour debut Spearhead From Space, and the 10th anniversary The Three Doctors, this box set offers all but one of Jon Pertwee's Doctor's DVDs. All the stories are good quality, and while they do not all follow directly on from each other, there are clear links between them. With an RRP of £19.99 each (6 would therefore cost £119.94), £34.99 is a bargain. Grab it before it's gone!
